Very happy with my purchase!

Extremely good noise canceling.
Fantastic sound
Beautiful design
The battery life seems to be disappointing compared to other headphones in this price range (30 hours). But thanks to the very easy charging method, I haven't experienced any issues at all.

I bought the headphones to enjoy music and movies undisturbed at home and on the plane. I'm amazed at how good the noise canceling is, even when listening to an audiobook where every second isn't filled with sound. The Immersive audio modes are also very nice. You can choose Dynamic if you're moving, which I find enjoyable. The sound quality is also more than satisfactory. I've already sat on the couch a few times with goosebumps because the music fills my ears so well. I think the battery lasts long enough. I won't be able to listen to 30 hours straight.

Option for replacement xm5, goes back and back Sony

If you set your EQ correctly, the sound will be good
Noise canceling works very well
Mic Quality is good
When worn for a long time (+2h) it hurts on the top of the head (depending on the shape of the head) - same problem with the Sony xm5/6

I bought it to replace my Sony XM5 headphones, hoping they would cause less pain on the top of my head. Unfortunately, it's the same problem (some people have this problem, others don't. It depends on your head shape, unfortunately).

The features are useful compared to the Sony (multiple device connection, setting them down and picking them up), but the battery life is worse, the headphones feel lower-quality, and even crackle with physical movement (the hardware is the physical, not the software) due to the headphones' design.
